WHAT WE DESIGNED

A devastating EF-2 tornado struck Leachville, AR, on December 10, 2021, damaging numerous businesses, including the local Simplot Grower Solutions (SGS) ag retail facility. However, SGS emerged stronger than ever, reopening its new fertilizer warehouse in March 2023.

This rebuild signifies SGS’s unwavering commitment to the Leachville community. The state-of-the-art facility prioritizes accuracy and speed, ensuring efficient service for the full range of ag retail products and services offered by SGS. An expanded seed warehouse is already planned for the future.

The impressive throughput of the new facility has transformed it into a major hub for the entire SGS footprint. This has allowed them to decommission two older warehouses with lower capacity and outdated technology.

SGS boasts a rich history in Leachville, with a retail presence exceeding 24 years. The successful rebuild involved key partnerships with Sackett-Waconia, Marcus Construction, Easy Automation Inc., and Hays Equipment.

“Simplot came to us in need of a system that was flexible enough to service the ever-changing demand in crop nutrition for their growers. The AccuBlend system paired with the HIM 2.0 blender, combines speed with Precision Fertilizer Blending, creating optimal solutions for not only today, but for the future as well.”  – JOHN LAMNECK, ACCOUNT MANAGER SACKETT-WACONIA

“Customer satisfaction is our top priority here at Simplot Grower Solutions. With the addition of our new fertilizer facility, with a top-of-the-line blending and receiving system, we are able to deliver products quickly and efficiently, and we have improved the overall quality of our fertilizer blends. We look forward to serving our customers, and ensuring that they are satisfied with Simplot’s business.”  – GRANT MASON, LOCATION MANAGER, SIMPLOT GROWER SOLUTIONS
